RE: Salvador Dali asked this legendary artist to paint his portrait and he refused. This artist DESPISED Dali for these reasons...
His sense of scale and composition at any age would have been an incredible feat but at the age he was makes him nothing short of amazing . Also goes to show that having the strength of character to stand up to the corrupt auctioneers of the time didn't effect how much money he made through out his life. Cant help thinking that given the widespread corruption we face today there is a lesson to be learnt from this young man.
After all these years, he still is a man of principle. I think of him as my second father and I'm honored he thinks of me as his second son even though we aren't related by blood. But because of the way the world has become, he's facing massive hardship: https://steemit.com/art/@selfishinvesting/legendary-artist-anthony-christian-painted-this-masterpiece-at-age-10-but-is-now-about-to-lose-thousands-of-his-masterpieces-his
